I'm trying to open a port for transmission but before I get to know either of the 2 options I'd like to know what you recommend and why.

OS is xubuntu 24.04

    Ubuntu defaults to ufw. That, by itself, justifies the use of ufw in your case.

    I like firewalld. Its also used on many enterprise distros (RHEL, SLES).

    But if you just have to open one port for something, just use what's installed on your distro.
